Re: Which 2007 record will last the longest?
I voted for Ghost's record because I think that luck (weather, slick ball, bad spot, poor footing) played a greater part in that record than any of the others. Sure, every record has a bit of luck in it (officiating, weird plays--oh god, like trapping the ball on your helmet with a potential HOF Defender on your back...), but not missing a single PAT means that three guys (snapper, holder, kicker) performed flawlessly 74 straight times in a single season, whatever the weather, whatever the condition of the ball, whatever the footing. That's got my vote.
